Traveling with a molter!!!

Post by krabby_katie »

Okay, so I'm in PEI for a few days. I brought 3 of the guys with me. Cosmo is now molting. She's bigger, so she won't be done by the time I leave. It's about a 5 hour drive back home. Will she make it? :( Can I do anything to help? I don't want her to die too...

try putting her on the flattest surface possible, like the floor of the car. mayver even surround the tank with towels to keep it from moving around and sliding. and just the basics: keep the tank conditions as best as possible. :D

best of wishes!!!

Thanks. She came up though. She's not molting anymore (thank god).
